Request permission to audit 

• Complete the online request preferably before enrollment begins on September 8, but no later than September 12. This request goes directly to the instructor.

  • submit a request before attending the class and at least a week in advance for an online class

Wait for course audit approval

• Check your wisc.edu email: Permission approvals will be sent to your wisc.edu email.
• Once you receive permission: attend the first day of class and enroll (unless otherwise instructed). Note, instructors may wait until the first day of class before approving permission requests.
